Haute Dog Cart

On Wednesday I went to a place Called the Haute Dog Carte, which is a hotdog cart that doesn't move.  When I got there, there was a short line at their little tent. There was a little choice, and there were only two hot dogs which would be kid friendly! They where HD signature and Chef Dogs! Though the hot dogs were huge, so it is a adult place.I was really interested in how they prepared the bun. First, they take out a hotdog roll. Next, they put it on this thing which splits them in half. Last, they take it of and comes out toasted! I got a chef dog, which was Smokey Mountain sausage. I got it with BBQ sauce and bacon marmalade. It was delicious!  There was also a lot of bun. It was so big I had to take half of it home! The marmalade made it much better. Though there wasn't a lot of BBQ sauce. The bun was very soft, and because of the marmalade I didn't taste much of the smoked sausage. I give *** stars for kid friendly and *** stars for food. Well, that's all.Bye!  

Grilled Cheese Cook-Off

On Sunday I went to Mt.Washington Tavern's Grilled Cheese Cook-Off(though you probably already knew that).When I got there they where still setting up,so I had to wait a little while.When they where ready,the judges and me where lead upstairs to our seats.They had them reserved so nobody would eat at the table.There where three categories,presentation,food(it wasn't called taste,and score.The first was a bacon grilled cheese with sauce under neath it.I gave it a 6 for presentation and a 4 for taste.Another grilled cheese I remember was a soup in a sandwich.It came with a little bath toy on the the sandwich(to bad I accidentally left it there!).I gave a 4 for presentation and a 8 for food.There's a grilled cheese which came with chips,tomato mouse,and a little dessert sandwich.If I where judging kid friendly,I'd give that grilled cheese a 10!Though the one I liked most was a  fruit salad sandwich grilled cheese.It had honey mustard,nuts,and apples on it.I gave a 7 for presentation and a 8 for taste.Even though she didn't win,I still had a great time.Well,that's all.Bye!
